In The Spirit Of Thanksgiving

This video has been circulating on facebook for a couple of weeks now but I just watched it for the first time today. Totally got me in the spirit of Thanksgiving and made me think about what I am thankful for. Click here and watch this video.

So in the spirit of Thanksgiving I am thankful for:
-The gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. It makes everything else that I am grateful for more meaningful, beautiful and eternal.
-Rich and his good heart. He gives service by using his talents. He is so compassionate and giving when he sees others needs. He is an amazing husband and father. He is such a good example to me and makes me a better person.
-Aidan and his strong will. It's been a year since Aidan got his feeding tube and trach out and yet I still think about all that we went through often. I'm grateful for the miracle of his life, his sweet disposition through it all and who he is today. The fact that he is completely healthy is something I am thankful for every day.
-Maya and the light that she brought into our family. From day one she was always exactly what I needed her to be. She brought with her peace and comfort and replaced the fear that I had. She is so happy and active and so much fun to be around!
-I am grateful for my mom for all of the sacrifices she made so that I could have all of the opportunities that I've had in my life. I am who I am and I am where I am because of her example.
-I am so grateful that I am going to have another baby any day now!!!!!!

I could seriously go on and on and on but I will stop there. I will be sure to thank my Heavenly Father for all that he has blessed me with, not only on this special day but everyday. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

One of my favorite things to watch. Rich reading our kids a bedtime story :)
